I think this is going to be the new HEATH ROBINSON run of the new gen lol

It is definitely going to seem like underlighting "on paper" as i am increasing my canopy.. but for my circumstances, I am maximizing space I have with available wattage to use if that make sense

Remember I already factored in lighting.. 3 2ft strips per bar... 9 bars... To equal 700 watts(that is my max per pvc due to legality and safety concerns)

I believe the standard way slightly increases yield.. IMO no facts... No light loss... But I think my method will increase QUALITY which is where most ppl say Vertical fall short...

My lights will be dangling from ceiling overhead the tower ... Lights are easily movable out the way when pruning & regular monitoring

The MAIN reason I am flipping the "standard Vertical cage" INSIDE OUT is for plant training purposes & the unlimited space of canopy vs the other way around... Easier access to visually see all plants and touch all plants

@TEKNIK on one of these pages is a diagram showing plants recieving light from 7-9 different angles ... This fixture will also rotate electronically..

Im glad you guys are helping me work out the kinks. I will be starting this build mid to late APR so all you guys will see this far fetched reality come together..:blsmoke::bigjoint:bongsmilie

Plus the plants will grow up nd out so 20" is really like 22-24" depending on my training skills... The plant won't just grow in a straight horizontal line to the light lol ..

I am leaning away from sativa though as I really don't want to waste more than 8wk per flower cycle indicas are like 7wk sometimes even sativa's don't stretch more than triple.. 6"x3=18" so 20" is PLENTY I thought..

Yes that is the whole idea of my fixture.. I just didn't know how to word it lol it will slide closer for when plants are smaller and away the bigger they get .. ALWAYS staying within 6"

@Randomblame look at my drawing and you will find my measurements.. the only thing that was incorrect is the diameter isn't 48" .. it's 58.6" which gives 6" clones 20" to grow && have 6" space between light which can most likely be closer...

Something like this tight...

The true diameter is 58.6" from bar to bar on opposite sides..

If I grow mother's in a separate area and cut clones @6" tall & throw immediately into 12/12 the plants will not grow over 20" tall.. I will be training them to grow single cola... Each net pot spaced 5-6" apart in all directions.. super tight, super packed...

And have a feeding like 8 times a day with water temps 68-74f...

May even be another form of manipulation to force super deep color out of flowers and frost while keeping roots at warmer temperatures to make it breathe more & drink more...

Like it could be winter time & your leaves might be 60F but won't show stress signs since it's roots are warm...bongsmilie:blsmoke::bigjoint:

Hey just a crazy thought... What if I hooked up a heater to blow air inside PVC to have roots @ like 77F .. would it matter so much about actual room temperature???
